§ 2A:49A-37 — Euro considered equivalent substitute for replaced currency

4. a. If a subject or medium of payment of a contract, security or instrument is a currency that has been substituted or replaced by the Euro, the Euro shall be a commercially reasonable substitute and substantial equivalent that may be either: (1) used in determining the value of that currency; or (2) tendered, in each case at the conversion rate specified in, and otherwise calculated or rounded, as appropriate, in accordance with, the regulations adopted by the Council of the European Union. b. If a subject or medium of payment of a contract, security or instrument is the ECU, the Euro shall be a commercially reasonable substitute and substantial equivalent that may be either: (1) used in determining the value of the ECU; or (2) tendered, in each case at the conversion rate specified in, and otherwise calculated or rounded, as appropriate, in accordance with, the regulations adopted by the Council of the European Union. c. Performance of any obligations described in subsection a. or b. of this section may be made in the currency or currencies originally designated in the contract, security or instrument, so long as the currency or currencies remain legal tender, or in Euros, but not in any other currency, if that other currency has been substituted or replaced by the Euro or is a currency that is considered a denomination of the Euro and has a fixed conversion rate with respect to the Euro.
